About
Relief for itchy skin. Soothes and calms redness and irritation and relieves itchiness at a sensory level, thereby reducing the need to scratch.
NART: 63174-07002-22Intensive care cream for flare-ups of Atopic Dermatitis and Atopic Eczema
Atopic skin is dry, irritable and itchy. This itchiness induces scratching which triggers the itch-scratch cycle. Symptoms worsen and can get in the way of a good night’s sleep and have a negative impact on quality of life. Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream has been specially formulated to offer relief and intensive care for skin undergoing a flare-up of Atopic Dermatitis and Atopic Eczema. The formula has a unique active ingredient complex of soothing Licochalcone A, anti-bacterial Decanediol and anti-itching and cooling Methoxypropandiol (MPD). This complex, combined with a high concentration of Ceramides, strengthens skin’s barrier, alleviates dryness and relieves itchiness at a sensory level, thereby reducing the need to scratch. Fragrance-free, the cream for Atopic Dermatitis and Atopic Eczema flare-ups can be applied as often as needed on affected areas and has been shown to support sleep and improve quality of life for those with Atopic Dermatitis. Suitable for adults, children and babies from four weeks.
How To Use
Apply as often as needed on flare-up areas.
You may experience a cool sensation or tingling shortly after application. This is nothing to be concerned about and just shows that the product is working.
Step-by-step guide for AtopiControl Acute Care Cream
Cleanse
Cleanse your face in the morning and evening with Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Cleansing Lotion. Cleanse your body with Eucerin AtopiControl Bath and Shower Oil. These products can be used during acute flare-ups of Atopic Dermatitis as well as during the period between flare-ups.
Care
During a flare-up Apply Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream to the relevant affected area to improve skin condition. Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream can be used alongside medical acne treatment. If you are also using a topical medical product apply that treatment before Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream. All our daily care products can also be used during a flare-up and should be applied after your medication and Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream. Daily care for the periods between flare-ups Apply the appropriate daily care product: Eucerin AtopiControl Cream: a thick cream for specific areas of your body such as the elbow folds and knee cavities Eucerin AtopiControl Lotion: a lighter lotion that is easy to apply all over your body Eucerin AtopiControl Hand Cream: which is also suitable for Hand Eczema Eucerin AtopiControl Face Cream: specially formulated for facial skin and an ideal make-up base
Protect
Atopic skin is particularly sensitive to UVA and UVB rays. For this reason, if your skin is going to be exposed to sunlight, we recommend that you apply a sun protection product after your care product. Try Eucerin Sun Creme SPF30 or Eucerin Sun Creme SPF50+ for your face and try Eucerin Sun Lotion Extra Light SPF30 or Eucerin Sun Lotion Extra Light SPF50 for your body.

- Licochalcone A
Licochalcone A is a powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing ingredient. It is derived from the root of the Chinese Licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza Inflata) which uses natural compounds to protect its cells from excessive sunlight. When used in skincare products, Licochalcone A works to reduce inflammation and neutralize free radicals that negatively influence skin cells and accelerate the aging process. It helps to protect the deeper epidermal skin layers from sun-induced effects.
- Menthoxypropanediol
An innovation developed by Beiersdorf Skin Research, Menthoxypropanediol is a derivative of menthol. It cools skin and works at a sensory level to reduce feelings of itchiness. When skin no longer feels itchy, there is no need to scratch it and so further damage to the skin barrier is avoided.
- Ceramides
Ceramides are important lipids in the hydrolipid film (which protects the external layers of skin). Produced naturally in healthy skin, they strengthen the skin barrier, helping to prevent moisture loss due to evaporation and keeping out irritants that can cause inflammation and itching. When skin’s Ceramide levels fall the skin barrier is impaired. Skin can start to lose water and become dry and irritated.
Eucerin uses synthetic Ceramides that are biologically-identical and that enhance skin’s natural barrier – locking in moisture and preventing dryness and irritation.
